The Wii Active will give you a great work out! I had not worked out in years, but once I started with the easy 20 min exercises, I stayed motivated the whole time. Im addicted to it now. It's funny that I look forward to going home to work out. Best of all I don’t have to go to the gym and still get the same type of exercise in the comfort of my own home. It fits perfect into my busy work schedule. Just 20 min! Who knew it would make such a difference. I feel more energized and in just 2 weeks I can tell my clothes are fitting a bit loose. My next goal will be to take the 30 day challenge.
What's great about it: Easy to set up and use. Great workout!
